Such change would be welcome. Basically one would have to adapt the following regexp from automake. --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- # This pattern recognizes a Gnits version id and sets $1 if the # release is an alpha release. We also allow a suffix which can be # used to extend the version number with a "fork" identifier. my $GNITS_VERSION_PATTERN = '\d+\.\d+([a-z]|\.\d+)?(-[A-Za-z0-9]+)?'; --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Ideally with some unit tests. :-) -- Mathieu Lirzin GPG: F2A3 8D7E EB2B 6640 5761 070D 0ADE E100 9460 4D37
